Lawrence Tynes Replacement.....

High School kicker makes 67 yard field goal.

SPOKANE, Wash.* -- A Washington state senior hit a 67-yard field goal to tie the mark for the second-longest field goal in a high school game. *

Central Valley High's Austin Rehkow drilled the kick, with distance to spare, to tie a game with Shadle Park High at 55 as regulation expired Thursday night. Central Valley, in the Spokane suburbs, went on to beat Shadle Park 62-55 in overtime. *

Heck, I say Reese goes out there and offer him a contract after he graduates. let him be Tynes' understudy and workout with Weathervord and DeOssie. By the time he goes through there workouts he'll be kicking 70 yard field goals with ease.

I'd give the kid some credit for nailing it to tie a game and send it to overtime, even if it probably would be 100x harder to pull that off in the NFL. Yea that 63 yard FG will be broken one day. My choice is the Raider's great kicker Sebastian Janikowski, who also shares the current record that he got last season week one.
